World Refugee Day: What do you know?

Today, there are more refugees in the world than ever before. Conflict, violence, persecution, and human rights violations are causing people to flee their homes.

BY BRAC USA

According to the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), as of the end of 2020, 82.4 million people had been forcibly displaced worldwide. When compounded by the impacts of climate change and a global pandemic, more and more people around the world are seeking refuge and in need of humanitarian aid. Each year, on June 20, the world recognizes the resilience of refugees – and their plight. At BRAC, our comprehensive responses help vulnerable families, communities, and refugees rebuild, recover, and prevail.
